If you are connecting your PC with an Ethernet cable to the router, your PC must be
installed first with an Ethernet adapter.
You need two Ethernet cables for this procedure, one cable to connect the router to the
modem and one cable to connect a PC to the router.
1 If you are currently running broadband to a single computer: Unplug the Ethernet cable
that runs between your modem and PC from the back of your PC and plug it into the
port labeled WAN on the back of your router.
If you are not running broadband to a single computer: Connect an Ethernet cable to
the WAN port on your router.
2 Connect the other end of the same cable to your cable or DSL modem. You have now
connected the router to the modem. It may be necessary to restart your cable or DSL
modem after making this connection.
3 To connect the PC to the router, use a second Ethernet cable and connect it to the
Ethernet port on your PC.
4 Connect the other end of the same cable into one of the LAN ports on your router. You
have now connected your PC to the router.
5 To connect more devices, repeat steps 3 and 4.
6 To configure the router, see Section 3: Configuration.
